Less than $5 8th Grade Grammar Activities

Scattegories is a fun and challenging board game that tests your creativity and quick thinking. I have recreated a classroom version for SPANISH LEARNERS called: ¡PÁREME LA MANO! also called in other countries, TUTTI FRUTI o PARA EL FUEGO. This is a fun game we used to play in school growing up in South America. I have tried in my own classroom and kids LOVE IT! This is such a great game to practice vocabulary and parts of the speech.

This product contains two versions of this game. One for individual play and one for a group game. There are a set of rules for both games but these are just suggested rules as you can set your own depending of the group of kids you teach. Kids will only need a dice, a white board marker and a wiper.

Time to encourage students about vocabulary words using this bundle!

Don't forget to share with me how it went with your little ones. I hope it was useful in your classroom.

• Improve student writing - when students see how adverbs and adjectives create vivid sentences, you can prompt them to work them in.
• Structure Matters - when talking about what's wrong with a sentence, we have to examine the elements that go into it.

Need a FAST way to formatively assess your Spanish students?  This Minuto loco (Mad Minute) Spanish conjugating activity can be digital or print, but it’s a tried and true method to conjugating with speed and accuracy.  Students seem to really focus and work intently when we give them a time limit.  It reminds them of memorizing their math facts when they were in elementary school, and in a way, memorizing endings for verbs is no different!  But turning the important skill of conjugating into a short and fun game is very motivating for students.

You can use this resource over and over again in each class, and every school year!  It is so easy to tailor to your curriculum, vocabulary or grammar!  Having everything you need in one place is such a time saver, and all the irregulars of particular tenses are worked in!  Students love this, and enjoy tracking their progress over time!
